When Zhang Tie opened his eyes, he saw so many people watching him with various looks.
All the elders of Huaiyuan Palace, including Zhang Taixuan, bowed deeply towards Zhang Tie with solemn looks. Zhang Tie hurriedly bowed back. After that, he returned to the team of Zhang Clan of Huaiyuan Palace quietly under the eye light of the prehistoric animal.
Nobody in the White Tiger Complex opened their mouth. After a long while, Commander Cheng let out a deep sigh.
"This supervisor has been fighting in the Earth-elements Realm for almost 6 decades. I've seen so many powerhouse knights, humans and demons; however, I've only seen demons eating humans. In each holy war, humans would suffer a great loss. Hundreds of millions of humans would become demons' food. Not until today did I see such a knight in Youzhou Province. When fighting the enemy, he was as fierce as a tiger. At the critical moment, even if his limbs were broken, he could still eat demons alive with his sharp mouth! Drinking the blood of demons when thirsty and eating the flesh of demons when hungry, how magnificent … "Commander Cheng's dark face gave out a brilliant light as he became very thrilled. He clapped his hands forcefully, which sounded like a heavenly thunder in the White Tiger Complex," If all the Hua people could do that, demons would not be exterminated at all. Give me my dragon-marrow liquor! "
Soon after Commander Cheng's words, in less than half a minute, his attendant had taken out two jars of liquor, one for Commander Cheng, the other for Zhang Tie.
Everyone in the White Tiger Terrace. No matter if it was the officials or the patriarchs or the knights of the clans, all of them were stunned. They could only look at Zhang Tie enviously.
He was the biggest winner in the competition for the provincial governor of Youzhou Province. It was Zhang Taixuan, Count Long Wind of Zhang Clan in Yanghe Prefecture. However, the most outstanding one was this Zhang elder who looked like a 16-year-old teenager — — Zhang Mushen. Being praised by Commander Cheng, Zhang Mushen must have a bright future in Taixia Country.
"This liquor was gifted by His Majesty when I came to Xuanyuan Hill a few years ago. Efficacy: It could change tendons and cleanse marrows, nourish and strengthen one's essence energy and soul, consolidate chakras and many other benefits. A drop of this wine was worth ten dippers of pearls. Ordinary people would feel like their bodies were being burned by fire and their bones would be broken. Therefore, only knights were allowed to drink this wine. Even knights would get drunk after three glasses of this wine. I have treasured these two jars of wine for many years. I feel very carefree today and want to drink. Do you have the guts to compete with me in alcohol tolerance? "
The wine jar was purple and had dragon patterns on it. It was about the size of a pumpkin and was made of an unknown material. It looked a bit like an amethyst; however, it was very heavy. Holding it by one hand, Zhang Tie felt that it weighed 50-60 kg. There was a line of square seal characters on the jar — — Tribute from the imperial financial official of Xuanyuan Hill's Imperial Financial Bureau! Just now, Zhang Tie was stealthily glancing at this jar of liquor. After hearing Commander Cheng's words and noticing the surrounding people's scorching eyes, of course, Zhang Tie knew that this dragon marrow liquor was not common anymore.
"Fine, I will call you Zhang Tie from now on. It's easy to remember!" Only after being silent for less than 1 second, Commander Cheng had put forward his idea straightforwardly, "I'm short of a commander-in-chief. It's a Class 5 official position. General Feng Yingyang, are you willing to accept it? "
'Commander-In-Chief?' After thinking about this strange name for a short while, Zhang Tie remembered the meaning of this position — — in Taixia Country, almost all the official positions with the title of Sima were related to military affairs. Sima, one of the top three chancellors in Taixia Country, was in charge of the expeditions and military affairs across Taixia Country. Sima, the Supervising Sima, was in charge of the guards of Commander Cheng, who was in charge of the guards of Commander Cheng. The guards of Commander Cheng were the most elite forces in the Northeast Military Region of Taixia Country.
Even a provincial governor of a lower province in Taixia Country was just a Class 5 official position, it was imaginable how great the power of a Class 5 supervisory commissar was. What was more, this position was very important to Zhang Tie. It was a position on the side of Commander Cheng. Given the closeness and trust of Commander Cheng, it was even better than that of common provincial governors. If one could do well in this position, his future would be limitless. To put it simply, his future would be limitless. In the future, if he didn't want to be a commander-in-chief, as long as he made some meritorious deeds and gained some experience, he could easily be a provincial governor of a province or a cheji general on the same level as him.
Closely after Commander Cheng's words, not only the elders of Huaiyuan Palace, even the elders and knights of the other 9 clans had their qi increased.
Without turning around, Zhang Tie had sensed the scorching eyes of Muyuan and the other elders of Huaiyuan Palace on his back. He knew what these elders were thinking about. If not being afraid of Commander Cheng's majesty and battle strength, they might have long told him to accept this position using battle qi. As for Huaiyuan Palace, this position was as significant as that of the competition for the provincial governor of Youzhou Province. Additionally, having a person on Commander Cheng's side, Zhang Tie's influence couldn't be matched by the other clans.
If Zhang Tie was really a piece of iron at this moment, he would almost be melted by the hot eyes of the surrounding people.
"I appreciate Commander Cheng's kindness and high regard very much. I'm afraid that I cannot accept the position of commander-in-chief!"
Closely after Zhang Tie's words, not only Commander Cheng, even the entire White Tiger Complex became quiet.
Commander Cheng faintly frowned as he released a majestic qi, causing a great stress to all the others.
"Why?" After hearing Commander Cheng's calm words, everybody at present felt that the temperature in White Tiger Complex dropped abruptly.
Zhang Tie looked straight into Commander Cheng's majestic face as he said in a low voice with a bit sadness, "I left home and joined the army at 16. I fought in Waii Sub-continent for almost 10 years. During the past 10 years, I always stayed away from my family members. After returning to Youzhou Province, I knew that my mother had been worried about me day and night over the past 10 years. A few days ago, when I returned home, my mother suddenly fell ill as soon as she became relaxed. As a son who travels thousands of miles away, his mother would always worry about me. I really couldn't stand my mother worrying about me day and night and growing old. Therefore, I could only decline Commander Cheng's good intention! My future and fame don't matter. As long as I could stay in Youzhou Province and let my mother see me every day without worrying about me day and night and have a good dream every night, it would be great. "
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, all the onlookers' eye light turned weird in a split second, of which Guo Hongyi's eye light was the weirdest.
Commander Cheng kept gazing at Zhang Tie's face. After hearing Zhang Tie's words, his eye light gradually softened. After a long while, Commander Cheng lowered his eye light as he let out a deep sigh, "Mother's kindness and son's filial piety. This is the moral of a gentleman. Who could take it away?"
"Thanks for your help, Commander Cheng!" Zhang Tie bowed towards Commander Cheng.
In the next second, Commander Cheng squinted his eyes as his qi rushed into the sky. The moment he opened his mouth, his voice had reverberated across Youzhou City. Everybody in Youzhou Province could hear it.
"As Youzhou Province has been promoted, Zhang Clan from Yanghe Prefecture won the position of provincial governor of Youzhou Province. I appoint Zhang Taixuan, Count Long Wind as the first provincial governor of Youzhou Province!"
Without any alchemist equipment or rune equipment. Commander Cheng's voice reverberated across White Tiger Complex like a rolling thunder before rushing into the clouds. After that, it bounced back to the ground and spread in all directions. It was extremely dignified.
"Where's Zhang Taixuan?"
"I'm here!" Under the gaze of the public, Count Long Wind strode out of the team of Huaiyuan Palace.
"Take it!"
The seal of the provincial governor of Youzhou Province, which symbolized the supreme authority of Youzhou Province, flew out of Commander Cheng's hand and landed on Zhang Taixuan's hands which were raised high above his head.
After taking it, Zhang Taixuan broke his tongue tip and sprayed a mouth of blood onto the seal. Closely after that, the seal gave out a strong light which covered the entire White Tiger Complex. Closely after that, the seal turned into a white light and entered Zhang Taixuan's forehead, causing a bizarre mark to appear on his forehead. In a split second, Zhang Taixuan's face looked a bit more dignified …
'I've not imagined that the seal of provincial governor of Taixia Country is also a silver secret item. This was the last thought that flashed across Zhang Tie's mind. The moment this whim occurred to his mind, Zhang Tie had felt warm all over. The overwhelming feeling of the dragon marrow liquor started to spread, making Zhang Tie dizzy. He lost consciousness in an instant.
…
"Provincial governor!" All the officials of Youzhou City in White Tiger Complex started to pay their respects to Zhang Taixuan.
When everything was done, Zhang elders called Zhang Tie's name and found that Zhang Tie didn't make any response. Everybody found that Zhang Tie didn't look like Zhang Tie. 'This Zhang Tie has fallen asleep standing up... '
"The effect of dragon-marrow liquor is too powerful. Zhang Tie has just formed his first chakra. After drinking up such a jar of liquor, it might take him a few days to wake up! "Commander Cheng's tender voice sounded. The elders of the Zhang family were relieved. At this moment. Those elders of Zhang family surrounded Zhang Tie like surrounding a treasure.
After throwing a few more glances at Zhang Tie, Commander Cheng's appreciation towards Zhang Tie grew. Finally, he let out a sigh once again, "Well, it's the fortune of the commoners in Youzhou Province to have such a fierce tiger on the back of this province..."
...
On the same day, Commander Cheng's airboat left Youzhou City and flew towards the south.
The fierce competition for the position of provincial governor of Youzhou Province came to an end for the time being.
...
In the evening, Commander Cheng watched Youzhou City which was gradually fading away with a faint and pitiful look.
At this moment, a fierce earth element wave drifted over from Youzhou City. Closely after that, a brilliant aurora started to appear in the sky in the distance, which was pretty brilliant...
An elder of Heavens Fortune Sect silently paced to Commander Cheng's side as he watched the scene in the distance and let out a sigh, "Zhang Taixuan has promoted to an earth knight!"
"In order to be the provincial governor of Youzhou Province, Zhang Taixuan purposefully suppressed his realm so as to gain the qualification for the position of provincial governor of a lower province. This Zhang Taixuan has made great efforts. In this way, he will definitely be the provincial governor of Youzhou Province. Lu Dingzhi is inferior to Zhang Taixuan after all!" Commander Cheng said with a clear look, "However, I've not imagined that Lord Huaiyuan is as fiery as fire and as straight as an arrow. He would rather take what is right than beg for what is wrong. His descendants are really scheming!"
"If Lord Huaiyuan could be half as patient as Zhang Taixuan, he would not be forced to leave Waii Sub-continent and establish the foundation of Huaiyuan Palace in that barren place. The offsprings of Lord Huaiyuan must have learned a lesson. How could they not warn the offsprings? However, if Huaiyuan Palace establishes its foundation in Youzhou Province once again, I'm afraid that it would be involved in the swirl of that year!" The elder of Heavens Fortune Sect said with a worried look. His words contained endless meaning.
"F * ck, the Northeast Military Region is this father's territory. Zhang Taixuan is appointed as the provincial governor of Youzhou Province by this father. As a Class 5 official of Taixia Country, if anyone dares touch this father's territory, don't blame this father for being merciless!" Commander Cheng's face turned black as he released a strong killing qi, "Although this father was not a member of God's Will Army, the friendship between Black Armor Army and God's Will Army was formed by suppressing demons at the cost of numerous fresh blood and demon heads. This father still has a lot of comrades-in-arms in Black Armor Army. Someone in Xuanyuan Hill could speak for His Majesty. If anyone dares offend me, this father will immediately turn hostile to him!"
"However, now that Zhang Taixuan has entered the imperial court, I'm afraid that you are not in charge of something. Everybody knows that you're black-skinned and black-hearted. Even if you want to lose your temper, you might not have a chance to lose your temper!"
"Zhang Taixuan is not a piece of dough. As long as he could be the provincial governor of Youzhou Province and maintain the foundation of Zhang Clan, it's not a big deal for him to be humiliated by others after experiencing some setbacks!" After saying this, Commander Cheng withdrew his killing qi as he rolled his eyes and changed the topic at once, "How's your disciple?"
"It's a mental barrier. It's also a test. If he doesn't break through it, he will be in great danger in the future!"
"You old fogies of Heavens Fortune Sect are always calculating everything, including your own people. I wonder whether it counts if you've slept with your wives. What's the fun in life?"
